The Edgewater Resort & Spa

The Edgewater Resort & Spa

8/10 Good
"We had a lagoon room - which was awesome! Amazing views. Well worth the extra $$. The room was basic - but clean. Breakfast was good - you could order cooked breakfast/coffees at an extra cost if you wanted. Food in general restaurant was good. Also ate at the Spahetti house - service was excellent and food was great. Plenty going on! Pool was awesome for our 12year old to play in - busy at times, but that's to be expected as its a large resort! Staff were great too!"

"Ideal for a quiet stay, we were away from road and beach, so nice and quiet, Good food, slightly expensive so tended to eat elsewhere. Wifi was extra cost, so we just usedthe free Wifi in the afternoons by the cafe/bar on the beach. Good sized room, basic but everything we needed."

"The property was well presented. The property managers (Rochele & Leo) were very friendly, helpful and accessible, especially when they visited and waited with me in emergency and drove me back home. Air conditioning was good. I expected the villa to face the waters as shown. Also, not easily accessible to local transport. Overall lovely place!"
